Big Ass Spider - Own It January 7th

Mike Mendez's gargantuan alien arachnid epic Big Ass Spider will be hitting Blu-ray, DVD and VOD on January 7th. To me it looks a bit like a SyFy original with a big (well, bigger) budget. I'm not sure if that's a good thing or not, but I'll certainly give a movie called Big Ass Spider a look to find out. Though it is a shame about the PG-13 rating, that'll surely keep the boobs and gore to a minimum.

Surviving extermination by nuclear eradication, a horrible alien
mutation in arachnid form is now growing at an exponential rate and
making its way toward downtown Los Angeles. Hot on its spindly heels is a
crack military unit with absolute authority, led by an obsessively
driven commander and his beautiful but lethal sidekick. Unfortunately
for them, this mutant spider has an array of deadly defenses including
the ability to virtually disappear through camouflage. But the
creature’s real adversary quickly turns out to be a hot-shot local
exterminator armed only with cocky attitude, some fast one-liners and
his homemade gadgets. Joining forces with the military team, this
blue-collar hero sets out to exterminate what has now become a monstrous
10-story tall MEGA SPIDER.
